Summer Solstice KAL 2013

The pattern is available on Brooklyn Tweed's website here or it can also be purchased on Ravelry here.

The shawl can be made in two sizes, a smaller solid color version and a larger multicolor version.

Cast on date is tentatively the first day of summer, June 21st. If that's not enough time to get your yarn ready, don't sweat it. I doubt anyone will have this kal done in less than a week (other than Kelli!) so latecomers are welcome! I don't have yarn for this project so I'm not ready quite yet! And as always, there is no deadline. It's a pressure-free go-at-your-own-pace knitalong.

I'm excited to see how many different versions we can come up with for this knit! It's such a great pattern to personalize with color and yarn weights...it will be very inspiring to play along this time!

Newbies, if you've never blogged before, there's a page on the sidebar of the blog with a simple tutorial to help with your first post once you've been included.

I'm really looking forward to knitting with everyone ~ I know there a few of us chomping at the bit to get this piece started!

My local yarn shop is having a big anniversary sale this weekend. I'll see what I can find there to use to take part in this knitalong. I'm not officially signing up yet, but will let you know. The shawl is beautiful!
